We are located in Shenandoah Valley, California, in the beautiful Sierra Foothills about one hour east of Sacramento. We are
open for tasting Fridays from noon until 4 PM and weekends from 11 AM until 5 PM.
Consistently good wines, true-to-type Italian varietals and very nice zinfandel. Love the Frivolo, too. Friendly staff and a tasting room that is welcoming and not slick.
Jim and Suzy Gullette have great passion for the wines they produce and make an impressive number of premium block designated Sangioveses. The subtle differences soils, terrain and orientation to sun exposure are a delight to experience. They are a premier producer of this varietal within the US that is more difficult to grow than most other grapes. They also produce Zin from the oldest vines in California, a killer Barbera, Muscato and Grappa. To top it off, they have one of the original Doggie Diner dog heads, nicely restored, in their parking lot and an awsome Bocce ball court!
Their Sangioveses can blow your socks off.
I brought one bottle of Marmellata together
with an Italian Brunello 3 times more expensive
at a blind tasting party run by a French friend,
and everyone thought the Noceto was the Italian
Brunello! The best kept secret in Amador,
and I hope it stays that way!
We just discovered this winery and the wonderful wines they have to offer. Highly recommend. This was a great place to visit, fun, relaxing and I couldn't help myself from joining the "big nut" club.
The wines are impeccable. The winery still has that family flavor and friendliness. The way wines and wine tasting should be: Delicious, fun and informative.
Noceto makes Sangioveses that are the best in the US. Their Zins are also superb as is their Barbera (and other offerings). Jim and Suzy run the best winery are are great people! I love their wines and recommend them above all others!
Year after year great Sangiovese, good value, always expanding their Italian choices, wonderful folks, really care for and take care of their customers.
